Privacy Policy
The use of our website is generally possible without providing personal data. Where personal data (such as name, address, or email addresses) is collected on our pages, this is done on a voluntary basis wherever possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent.
We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by email) may have security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.
The use of contact data published as part of the imprint obligation by third parties for the purpose of sending unsolicited advertising and informational materials is hereby expressly prohibited. We expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited sending of advertising information, for example through spam emails.
Server Log Files
The provider of these pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:
- Browser type and browser version
- Operating system used
- Referrer URL
- Hostname of the accessing computer
- Time of the server request
For data protection reasons, the hostname or IP address of the client accessing your website is anonymised in the log files. Only the entries for the client's host, or if this cannot be determined, the client's IP address, are anonymised in the log files. The format of all other entries remains unchanged. This data will not be merged with other data sources. We reserve the right to review this data retrospectively if we become aware of specific indications of unlawful use.
Use of Google Maps
This website uses the Google Maps API, a map service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"), to display an interactive map and to create route plans. Google Maps is operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
Through the use of Google Maps, information about your use of this website (including your IP address) may be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google may transfer the information obtained through Maps to third parties where required by law or where third parties process such data on Google's behalf.
Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. Nevertheless, it would be technically possible for Google to identify at least individual users based on the data received. It is possible that personal data and personality profiles of website users could be processed by Google for other purposes over which we have no influence. You have the option of disabling the Google Maps service and thus preventing data transfer to Google by disabling JavaScript in your browser. However, please note that in this case you will not be able to use the map display on our pages.
Google's privacy policy and additional terms of use for Google Maps can be found at https://www.google.com/intl/de_de/help/terms_maps.html
Links to Websites of Other Providers
Our website may contain links to websites of other providers, to which this privacy policy does not apply. Where the use of other providers' websites involves the collection, processing, or use of personal data, please refer to the privacy notices of the respective providers.
Contact
Personal data is collected by us when you provide it to us on your own initiative, for example when you contact us. The personal data transmitted to us in this way will of course be used exclusively for the purpose for which you provided it to us when making contact.
Providing this information is expressly voluntary and with your consent. Where this concerns communication channel details (e.g. email address, telephone number), you also consent to us contacting you via this communication channel if necessary in order to respond to your enquiry.
You may of course revoke your declarations of consent at any time with effect for the future. Please contact our Data Protection Officer, whose contact details can be found below.

We have taken extensive technical and operational precautions to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction, or access by unauthorised persons. Our security procedures are regularly reviewed and adapted to technological advances.
No Transfer of Data to Third Parties
